Leicester_H Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 Dear all, If you would like to petition Omlet QH to reintroduce Sweatshirts to their sales line, please post a comment below. And we want sensible sizing and colours (not all girls want pinks&purples!!) please !! Thanks, H Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClaireG Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 Please can you bring the sweatshirts back and also realise that we're not all skinny minnies. Plus sizes would be very much appreciated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laura & CTB Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 I would - probably several! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chickvic Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 I would love a sweatshirt or a t-shirt but they just aren't big enough Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewis Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 Have you emailed Omlet? They might listen even more if you include a link to this but if you haven't I don't think they regularly check the forums so might not know I said Yes in sensible colours and sizes but have no idea how the mens sizes come out, have just heard the womens are odd sizes so would be good if they put an actual measurement Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 The women's T shirts all used to come up very small, but the newer ones in the heavier cotton jersey are better sized. The men's ones are a much better size and Phil really likes his. I'm wearing my sweatshirt now and it really is far too tight, I guess that the 'large' is a child size - very flattering that Johannes thinks I am that small, but it's not very comfy. Shame it won't fit Rosie - she's the saem size as me now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
docsquid Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 Please do a sweatshirt but please include small sizes because the t-shirt I ordered in a size 8 is absolutely huge! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewis Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 Please do a sweatshirt but please include small sizes because the t-shirt I ordered in a size 8 is absolutely huge!

Leicester_H Posted November 11, 2009 Author Share Posted November 11, 2009 Have you emailed Omlet? I was planning to when I had some support on here. I was going suggest that they have a limited range (they won't want to be left with a load of stock) So maybe, - 4 colours (Black, White, Grey, Red) - large 'Omlet' on front (like previous ones) and small "The Art of Chicken Keeping" (or whatever was on previous sweatshirt) in either Black or White (whichever gives best contrast) - or maybe some other Omlet logo - they could put a few on here and we could vote on favourite. - Unisex sizes - BUT give garment sizes as well (like Land's End do) so people can measure a sweatshirt/jumper that fits and buy one the same size - WITHOUT having to guess what the suppliers mean by s/m/l etc. What material would be best ? Pure cotton or cotton with a LITTLE polyester to help it keep in shape ?? H Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
babsels Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 Hi, Such luck, we were just looking at ordering sweatshirts. Please can you give me some suggestions for the colours you would like and also what you would like us to print on the sweatshirts?

Leicester_H Posted November 11, 2009 Author Share Posted November 11, 2009 Please can you give me some suggestions for the colours you would like and also what you would like us to print on the sweatshirts? As above, with design as on T-shirts like http://www.omlet.co.uk/shop/shop.php?cat=Clothing&sub=T-Shirts%20Men&product_id=30&sort=popularity&start=0 Unless anyone has any other ideas ??

Lewis Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 I like the navy blue ones aswell - I always have to wear black backstage for 'work' and you can't wear white around chickens Maybe have a chicken on it or something, like you linked to otherwise you might look like a walking billboard? Just spotted this which looks good ... might have to get one if I do Hen Parties and its Christmas soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cooks Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 now I love omlet and the products but I draw the line at advertising them across my chest.. So I opt out this one... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kooshie Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 I would love one if it was pink like my Eglu! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leicester_H Posted November 11, 2009 Author Share Posted November 11, 2009 (edited) I think purple too... I love purple! I was trying to avoid 'unusual' colours (purple,pink,orange) because I THINK that they appeal to a smaller number of people than more 'traditional'/safe colours - so Omlet would be able to have adequate stocks and not beleft with a lot un-sold. Just my view though. H Edited November 12, 2009 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 The one I have is on a khaki green background, fairly safe colour and male/female. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kitbag Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 I would buy one - but sensible sizes please! I ordered a size 10 t-shirt and it was too small! Also, I agree with the others, I don't want to look like a walking billboard! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mostin Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 I really don't give a hoot what colour as long as it fits. To put it bluntly, I am an Orpington with huge boobs , and I always get mens sweatshirts in XXXL if I can to be really comfy and baggy. I bet that size has never darkened the door of the omlet shop .
